After a prolonged rollout that included last-minute
changes and a massive fashion show, Kanye West's
new album is finally out for the public.
The rap superstar in the early hours Sunday put out
his seventh studio album, "The Life of Pablo,"
shortly after he performed on the weekly television
comedy show Saturday Night Live in New York.
West had debuted the album Thursday in a fashion
show-turned-concert at New York's Madison Square
Garden, as the self-described renaissance man and
husband of reality television star Kim Kardashian
displayed his latest Yeezy clothing line.
But the album was not yet available for fans who did
not tune in Thursday. "The Life of Pablo" on Sunday
came out exclusively on Tidal, the streaming service
led by rap mogul Jay Z in which West has a stake.
Amid the wait, West also made last-minute changes
to "The Life of Pablo." The album includes a song,
which was not on the original track list, entitled "I
Love Kanye."
On the track West -- who has compared himself to
Michelangelo and Pablo Picasso -- raps about his
public image, with references to himself in the third
person in every line.
